One thing to note.... the less UTXOs when sending tx... the smaller the transaction size and thus fees.

In Bitcoin, UTXOs (unspent transaction outputs) affect the cost of transactions in two ways:

* The number of UTXOs used in a transaction affects the size of the transaction. The larger the transaction size, the higher the transaction fee.
* The value of the UTXOs used in a transaction affects the priority of the transaction. Transactions with higher value are given priority by miners, which means they are more likely to be included in the next block and confirmed more quickly.

For example, if you have 100 UTXOs, each worth 1 satoshi, and you want to send 1 BTC to someone, you will need to use all 100 UTXOs in the transaction. This will make the transaction very large, and the transaction fee will be high.

However, if you consolidate your UTXOs so that you only have a few larger UTXOs, the transaction size will be smaller and the transaction fee will be lower.

The value of the UTXOs also affects the priority of the transaction. If you send 1 BTC from a UTXO that is worth 1 BTC, the transaction will have a high priority and will be confirmed more quickly. However, if you send 1 BTC from a UTXO that is worth 1 satoshi, the transaction will have a low priority and may take longer to confirm.

In general, it is best to consolidate your UTXOs and send transactions with a high value to reduce the cost of transactions.

Here are some tips for reducing the cost of Bitcoin transactions:

* Consolidate your UTXOs so that you have a few larger UTXOs.
* Send transactions with a high value.
* Use a low-fee wallet.
* Send transactions during off-peak times.

By following these tips, you can reduce the cost of Bitcoin transactions and save money.
